Cottage Review:  

A comfortable, well appointed cottage in a peaceful location with stunning views of the moors from the garden.

Sitting in the garden looking at the stars (I have never seen so many) while enjoying a glass of wine was very special.

The location made it easy to get to Hadrian's Wall, Alnwick and Cragside.

Looking forward to visiting again.

Cottage Review:  

Cosy cottage with expansive views of the surrounding countryside. Otterburn is only 3 miles away where you can buy supplies in the village shop then visit Otterburn Mill, the cafe is well worth a visit and you can take dogs in the shop and cafe. Hexham and Hadrians Wall is about a 30 minute drive on quiet roads, Hexham Abbey is well worth a visit as is the market. Keillor Forest is a short drive and there are footpaths all over the place.

The cottage itself is owned by the very helpful, friendly Ann and John. It is light, very clean, welcoming and has everything you need for your self catering holiday. We cannot wait to return.

A lovely warm friendly and welcoming property. A get away from the rat race sort of place. Ann & John very helpful. John even kindly helped make it even darker to enable hubby to use his telescope in this wonderful dark sky region. Shame he couldn't move the clouds but it gives us an excuse to visit again!

Cottage Review:  

The cottage was lovely, clean and well appointed. there were flowers and a packet of biscuits waiting for us on our arrival.

The heating system was excellent. The hosts were very friendly and left you to do your own thing but were very approachable for help and advice. Although the fridge in the cottage has a small freezer the hosts were very willing to share their large freezer with you.

The surrounding area was the beautiful Northumbrian countryside. Less than 20 miles to the seaside and many places of interest easily accessible.

Cottage Review:  

Had a great 3 nights at Drover's Rest. Ideally located in the Dark Sky area of Northumberland and close to Kielder Forest for star gazing and going to visits to Kielder Forest and Castle.

Cottage was warm and cozy with all the necessary equipment required for a weekend away. Owners live in the house next door and are friendly and helpful.

Would recommend this cottage. Lovely location and still close to all the things you may want to visit, pubs, castles, lakes, countryside.

Cottage Review:  

Very pleasant & clean cottage. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, make sure you take directions as there is no wifi so had to stop at the mill shop in Otterburn! Even through Otterburn is remote, nearest supermarket is 23 miles away in Hexham there is lots to do and see in Northumberland especially if you are National Trust members. We had a very good holiday and would recommend staying in Otterburn again.
